A Healthy & Affordable Way to Dine IN

Greetings! I hope that everyone had a wonderful weekend. Once again it looks like Thursday will be the perfect soup weather! While I love making soup, I am getting tired of soup weather and am ready for picnic weather…or bbq weather…or turn the heat off for good weather! Some of you have been asking when I will wrap it up for the season. At this point I am letting the weather dictate the date. Once it consistently reaches the 70’s people begin to have their soup fill until September. In the meantime, enjoy a quart or two this Thursday and fill the freezer the hiatus that will eventually arrive!

Hello soup customers! I hope everyone has a chance to get out and enjoy the sunshine today! Looks like after this we will back in the chilly, damp weather pattern we seem to be stuck in. At least it’s still good soup weather!

Welcome April showers! I always need to remind myself that the dark and dreary days of April will eventually reward us with spring greens and gaudy tulips! This weeks soup will add a zip of flavor that is needed this time of year.

Sour cream and grated cheese. 13. Per quart served with bread. Gluten-free

It is almost mid March! That glorious time of year when one day feels like spring – the next winter. It’s a moody month, full of ups and down. Food wise I start to crave lighter, fresher flavors , yet still want something warm and soothing. Soup to the rescue!

This will be the last soup Thursday of February! For those of you visiting warm climates next week, please soak up some warmth and color for me. Although I do enjoy the stark beauty of Vermont’s winters, I start to miss color at this time of year!
